The 6th Annual Dublin UNESCO City of Literature Lecture, presented by Professor Chris Morash, Seamus Heaney Professor of Irish Writing at TCD, delves into the fascinating connection between Dublin writers and the art of conversation. Lady Gregory, an esteemed writer, once reflected on how conversations with friends enriched her writing, teaching her to swiftly translate thoughts into words and sentences. This sentiment holds true for many writers, as hidden beneath the pages of Dublin's literary masterpieces lie the lost conversations that inspired them. In fact, some writers valued conversation so much that they established regular literary salons, opening their homes to fellow writers to discuss life and literature. These salons became a hub for intellectual discourse and an avenue for writers to sharpen their thoughts through conversation. During this lecture, Professor Morash will explore several of these Dublin literary salons, shedding light on the writers who frequented them and the profound impact these gatherings had on the cultivation of the art of conversation. Join us on February 21, 2024, at the Dublin City Library & Archive, located at 144 Pearse Street, Dublin, for this enlightening event. Admission is free, and it promises to be an engaging exploration of Dublin's vibrant literary heritage.

It was very good. I drank a pint of beer on the top floor without even paying for peanuts. It was different from the previous brewery tour in Boston, except that I could enter the workshop.

The most worthwhile attraction in Dublin, there are three worthwhile attractions: the first is the Book of Kells, which is the national treasure of Ireland, but you must listen to the audio guide, otherwise you will not understand the preciousness of this scripture; the second is the library gallery, which is the filming location of the Harry Potter movie, and it is also very quaint and unique; the third is the oldest harp in Ireland. In general, the tour is very exciting, the small disadvantage is that the price of Ctrip is slightly more expensive than the local ticket price, and the cost performance is not very high.

Dublin Castle has a long royal history and the attractions are worth visiting. The ticket price is only 8 euros (6 euros for those over 60 years old). However, the ticket price on Ctrip for those over 60 years old is 160 yuan, which is 3 times the price on site. It is too expensive!!! It has affected my high trust and good impression of Ctrip!!!

This Catholic church in Dublin has a long history and is a landmark building in Dublin. Both the inside and the outside are very exquisitely built.

Ireland belongs to the temperate marine climate zone, so the vegetation coverage rate is very high. This green color, from south to north, from east to west, covers the island country, clear and transparent like emerald. The green of Ireland is fascinating, but the weather in Ireland is very depressing. When I came here, everyone said a joke that it rains 300 days out of 365 days in Ireland. One of my colleagues once talked about the weather in Ireland with a taxi driver. The driver said that God gave Ireland such a beautiful coat, and if he gave it good weather, it would be envied by the world.
